Intel XScale
®
Processor Reset Mechanism
This reset is initiated through:
• the
HOLD_X0_IN_RST#
/
HOLD_X1_IN_RST#
straps
Once invoked, the Intel XScale
®
processors are held in reset until released by software
The
HOLD_X0_IN_RST#
/
HOLD_X1_IN_RST#
are sampled at the trailing edge of
the fundamental resets and control the default value of the Core Processor Reset bits in
function 0. When invoked via the strap, software should clear the Core Processor Reset
bits in function 0 to bring the Intel XScale
®
processor out of reset.
After the initial boot sequence, the host driver can place the Intel XScale
®
processor in
reset by asserting the Initiate Core Reset bits in any of the enabled functions which
causes the corresponding Core Processor Reset bits to be set. Software must clear the
Core Processor Reset bits in the same function in order to bring the Intel XScale
®
processor out of reset.
